Therapy for life transitions
For when the life you built doesn't quite fit anymore
You did everything you were supposed to do. And now you're standing in the middle of the life you built, wondering how you got here and whether this is actually what you want.
Maybe it's a breakup, a job change, a move, or a milestone birthday that hit harder than expected. Maybe there's no single event — just a slow, creeping sense that something needs to change and you don't know what or how. Maybe you feel like everyone around you has figured something out that you haven't.
Life transitions — even the ones you chose, even the good ones — can be genuinely destabilizing. They surface questions about identity, direction, and what you actually want that don't have easy answers. Therapy is where you get to sit with those questions without having to perform certainty you don't feel.
What brings people to life transitions therapy
Career changes or the feeling of being in the wrong field entirely
The end of a relationship — and the identity questions that come with it
Moving to a new city or leaving one behind
Quarter-life or mid-life questioning: "Is this really it?"
Graduating and losing the structure that's defined you for years
Becoming a different version of yourself and not knowing where old relationships fit
Grief — for a person, a relationship, a version of the future you thought you'd have
The specific anxiety of being in your late 20s or early 30s and feeling behind
What life transitions therapy with me looks like
Life transitions therapy isn't about arriving at a five-year plan. It's about slowing down enough to actually hear yourself — separate from the noise of what you're supposed to want, what your family expects, what your peer group is doing, what the city seems to demand.
In our sessions, we'll explore the questions underneath the transition. What do you actually value? What are you grieving? What are you afraid of? What would it feel like to trust yourself? These aren't small questions, and there's no rushing them — but sitting with them in a supported, structured way moves you forward faster than trying to think your way through alone.
I work with a lot of women in their 20s and 30s who are in the middle of exactly this — smart, capable people who have more going on internally than their external circumstances reflect. My approach is warm, direct, and genuinely curious. I'm not going to hand you a life plan. I'm going to help you build the clarity and groundedness to find your own.
What to expect when getting started
01
Free 15-minute consult call — We'll connect briefly, you can tell me what's going on, and we'll figure out whether I'm the right fit for what you're navigating right now.
02
First session: getting the full picture — We'll talk about your history, your current situation, and what you're hoping to find on the other side of this transition. There's no agenda to perform — just an honest conversation.
03
Weekly sessions, at your pace — Transitions don't move on a fixed timeline, and neither does therapy. We'll work at a pace that's right for you, with real focus on building clarity and movement — not just processing in circles.
04
A clearer sense of yourself on the other side — The goal isn't certainty — it's groundedness. Knowing yourself well enough to make decisions that feel like yours, and trusting yourself to navigate what comes next.
